The Finale ~ Posing with her younger sister, the 1993 Lux Turbo 2 Z1070l. I will also try and get an after video eventually.

After ~ All reassembled with a nice new coat of wax, new bag & filter.

The next day ~ After removing as many marks as I could with rubbing alcohol, I decided to go the extra mile and add a new coat of clear coat to the hood, handle and body.

pic #1 - Motor finished. Pic #2 - Drying time! Pic #3 & 4 - Brush roll before and half and half.

@dysonman1 Never knew the US had them. The one you posted a picture of was our 500 series.

pic #1 - Brushes are a little low, but still have plenty of life in the still. pic 2# - Unfortunately this is as far as you can strip a lux motor as they crimped the fans on thus not being able to remove them. pic #3 - Commy in very lovely condition, only ever so light bar burning on a few...

Wishy~Washy! Still ;) While the parts were enjoying their 'Fairy Apple Orchard' bath, I decided to get to work on the motor.

pic #1 - Something you don't see very often, brown wheels. pic #2 - Why Electrolux, why did you think this was a brilliant idea? pic #3 - Rating sticker 036 = decade - 90's, so 0 = 1990 and 36 = week, So 36th week of 1990 :)

Something different, this ones bellows are connected with a cable tie, whereas the Z1070 had 'removable' bellows which were held onto the sole plate by a sliding clip, thus giving the user more access/ easier access to clear blockages. Also, very worn brush strips vs new ones.

Going to skip over a bit here, just the usual tear down.

Now that she's at her new home, let the resto commence! To my very surprise, there's a damn air freshener left in! At least it doesn't smell horrid like a Turbopower 2 'air freshener' I found once! And still its genuine filters and original bag clip.

I will eventually photocopy the manual and guarantee card etc to share.

Before ~

So, a freebie here, always good in my books! This was my Grandmas Lux, which has been her daily driver for the past 27 years and is still going strong. While Grandma did keep this lux in good, clean condition,this ol' gal was in need of a service (more cleaning wise and bearings greased etc...

Final After Pic ~ And into the collection she goes, still being outnumbered by Hoover. :P

302 = 2nd week of 1993
